Chapter 366: Margaret’s Teaching!
Translator: Lonelytree
” You can only review the contents of the class through your own memory. Let’s continue!
” After measuring the enemy’s combat ability and confirming that you haven’t provoked any rich people or hidden big shots, it’s time for the real battle. “My battle rules were very simple. The core concept is just one”Be cunning and unscrupulous!
“If you can defeat more people, you will never fight one-on-one.
“Don’t show your face in advance if you can sneak attack in secret;
“If you can poison, don’t use fireballs to attack; “If you can curse, refuse to fight head-on.
“If you can use items, don’t consume your mana.
“If you can bluff, don’t fight head-on. “There is only one goal in battles.
“That is victory!
“The means of victory were only tools, and there was no distinction between high and low tools.
“You should treat all means of victory equally. This is the attitude that a Battle Mage should have.
“Killing your enemy in the most efficient way is also the greatest respect a Battle Mage has for their enemy.”
Matthew nodded excitedly.
Margaret’s ideas actually coincided with his.
As a pragmatic person, he realized that he was actually quite suitable to become a Battle Mage.
” Very good. It seems that you don’t reject my point of view. Now that we’ve finished talking about the concepts, let’s talk about some real details.” Margaret continued,
“The unscrupulous battle strategy can be divided into four areas.
“First, strategy.
Strategy includes covert schemes and overt schemes. I don’t care what method you use. It doesn’t matter if you kill someone with a borrowed knife or if you use someone else’s influence. A strategy that can kill the enemy is a good strategy.
“I won’t go into detail about this because I’m not good at strategy. I prefer to fight with real weapons.
“Second, assassination.
“There are many ways to assassinate someone. The most common ones were hiring assassins, poisoning, or cursing.
“This method is very effective in situations where the target is unaware.
“However, if the enemy were on guard, the success rate of the assassination would be greatly reduced.
“At this point, I must mention an unconventional assassination method. “This involves the ‘Transformation Paraboly’. I don’t know if you’ve studied it in advance.”
Matthew nodded.
“I know a little. The so-called transformation spells are all used to temporarily transform the target into a special magical form through a fixed medium.
“This form did not mean that the target had really turned into a sheep or a stone. The physical attributes of the target were actually unchanged, so instead of calling it a transformation, it was more like trapping them in a special medium. The strength of the transformation spell determined the stability of the medium.
“The so-called Transformation Paraboly is that if you turned a person into a
frog and swallowed it into your stomach…
“The frog should be damaged by gastric acid corrosion in your stomach. Due to insufficient stability, it should beaten back to its original form.
“Logically speaking, that person should have appeared in my stomach. “However, that would not be the case. He would only appear at a random location beside me without any damage.
“This won’t cause my stomach to explode. “This phenomenon is the Transformation Paraboly.”
Margaret nodded approvingly.
“This is a common problem with all transformation spells because it doesn’t change the basic properties of the material.
“It was the same for the Druid’s wilderness form. They were just more stable and more realistic.
“However, there was a certain type of spell that was an exception.
“That is the True Transformation!
“True Transformation could break through the Transformation Paraboly to kill people.
“You can turn into a sugar cube and wait for the enemy to swallow you into their mouth before suddenly cancelling the spell.
“At this moment, his head would definitely be blown apart by you.
“I’m quite skilled in True Transformation, and I’ve killed quite a few people with it.
“If you have the ability to learn True Transformation, don’t hesitate. No matter what the form of the transformation is, you have to take it.
“This is the type with the highest success rate among all assassination methods.
“You can’t miss it!”
Matthew’s face turned slightly green after hearing this.
He felt a little regretful.
If he had attended Margaret’s class a few days earlier, he might have chosen True Transformation from the abilities in the domain of transformation.
Although it seemed difficult for the enemy to swallow a stone, he could also stuff the stone into bread or something.
Margaret had given him a lot of information in class.
Before Matthew could digest it. She continued speaking in a swift and decisive manner,
“Third, make the first move.
“If there must be a magic showdown, then the first move is very important. I suggest that you buy a Dragon Fire Amulet. This thing can break all spells and is a necessary tool for making the first move without pressure.
“The fourth piece of content was also related to the spell showdown, which was a game or a feint.
“Remember!
“You can predict the enemy’s movements, but don’t predict too much!
“I’m not questioning your intelligence, but my teacher taught me a saying a long time ago. This saying has been fully tested in my combat career.
Rookies die from feints, while experts die from prediction.
“Any combat game with an enemy higher than three tiers is foolish.
“The kind of battle where I predicted your prediction only existed in the scripts of third-rate bards.
“It is not a joke that experts die from predictions. This sentence is the essence extracted from countless corpses.
“I’m not asking you to completely reject prediction..”
